This research is descriptive correlational based on method. Statistical population of this study consists of all 100 experts, managers, faculty members, and consultants in selected knowledge-based organizations of Tehran and Isfahan provinces. 79 samples are selected by simple sampling method according to Cochran formula. Research tool consists of three standard questionnaires with confirmed content and factor validity. Standard questionnaires are also applied and examined by professors and experts and their validity is confirmed. Reliability of knowledge management questionnaire is estimated with components (knowledge creation, sharing, application, and storage) with Cronbach s alpha of 0.935; and reliability of self-efficacy questionnaire with Cronbach s alpha of 0.845; and empowerment questionnaire with components of competence, self-determination, impact, meaningfulness, and trust with Cronbach s alpha of 0.843. Data analysis is performed at two descriptive (mean, frequency tables and charts) and inferential (factor analysis and structural equation model) levels using SPSS software. According to research results, there is a significant relationship between components of knowledge management and human resource empowerment components. Finally, structural equation model indicates that knowledge creation and sharing components have the highest effects on human resource empowerment components due to the mediation of self-efficacy variable.
